I mean it!

(I bet you thought it'd be bashing post!)

Nah... I am feeling just fantastic this week - the weather is a major part of it.. May is truly beautiful in the ROK , fantastic, fantastic, fantastic.

On top of that, it's midterms week, so not only have I not taught any classes, I've also been told to go home after lunch 2 days out of the thre thus far (midterms started Tue). I'll be going home early tomorrow too Smile

a dept head took me out for lunch yesterday and it turned out to be really good (after I x-nayed the sushi idea, that would NOT have been good). I even liked the Korean soup, after I allowed it to cool down a bit.

went out and got myself a bit of a tan today, fell asleep in the sun... came back home, slept some more... went to the gym feeling great.

the kitchen women who make my tuna salad are amazing, it's been getting better and better, I will have to buy them something additional tomorrow... other than the coffee I already provide.

I'm seeing some Korean boobage (no, no buttocks, you can't imagine things out of thin air) , everyone is nice to me, and I'm just generally in a super fantastic mood. Smile

Korea sparkling!

really!

sometimes it does Very Happy

anyone else just "feeling it" this week?

I've had those too (as we all do).. interestingly enough, I had two of the worst weeks here right after I renewed my contract - thinking WTF did I just do>???

but I think it's important to note the good weeks too! and since I, as many others, tend to use Dave's as a bitching/coping tool to life here, it's only fair that the good moments get mentioned as well.

I think the weather is a big part of it. It's just been gorgeous the last several days and of course having a near "de facto" vacation while still getting paid.. that's damn nice too.

yet another reason I can't imagine ever working in a hagwon (though I happen to be in a particularly great PS situation, that's not true for everyone)

if I ever stay here for a while longer, I think I'll just follow my current VP (who becomes a principal next year) to wherever he goes Smile

Is it still the Hub of Asia (tm)? and most importantly, still Dynamic (tm)?

lol.. Glad you're having a good week. It's nice to hear some positive happening from The Dynamic Sparkling Land of the Hub of Asia with Calm Mornings.

(and boobage!) Laughing

I had an interesting week, not really a great week, but a week when life improved noticeably. Not there yet. Next week maybe.

incoming newbie, eh?

you'll have good weeks and you'lll have bad weeks (as is the case everywhere in life, just magnified here)

btw.. loved your EM list - the expensive guy at 50K who plays prog house/trance... I love that stuff.. I don't think I can spring out this weekend, but perhaps the next, the time has to come to make the weekend party trip out to the "big Smoke" (amusing term I've heard here for Seoul)

I have this funny feeling a lot of the "boobage" I've been seeing is a result of padded/ enhanced and or push up bras...just by the angle... but I'll take it.

the glutes are still subject to the stiff requirements of the armistice so you won't see them here..... perhaps ever?

you're coming at a good time. I came in May last year.. and as I said.. May is the best month weather wise here by far. It'll be good until mid June or so when the insufferable humidity moves in.

Wish my girl had more of that Back

I too have had an enjoyable week (2 weeks actually). No teaching + several days off from even going to school = me happy.

I may have become a little jaded or maybe not, but my gf has a "bubble butt" if that is even possible to fathom for a Korean girl. Very Happy

I was in Korea back in 2002 (just in time for the massive kill-America riots, and again in 2006-07.

I just can't seem to stay away. The Sparklingness has it's own gravitational pull!

The Big Smoke eh? Never heard that.. but I'm afraid it'll become part of my lexicon:

The Big Smoke (tm).

Hope everyone has a Sparkling weekend..

I LOVE this, reads like prose poetry from Junot Diaz or some sh*t.
